The teams were originally expected to meet in the outdoor game in 2021, but the event was postponed due to COVID-19 gathering restrictions.

The event continues the tradition the League first established in 2008 of hosting a regular-season outdoor game at the start of the new year. The 2022 NHL Winter Classic will mark the 14th anniversary of the first NHL Winter Classic, which was played in Buffalo.

Target Field, located in Minneapolis, Minn., was named Sports Facility of the Year in 2011 by the Sports Business Journal and was recognized as having the best game day experience in all of sports by ESPN the Magazine in 2010. Over its first decade, Target Field has hosted Major League Baseball’s postseason (2010 and 2019) and All-Star Game (2014), multiple sporting events including Minnesota prep tournaments, an international soccer match (2016), NCAA football games (2017 and 2019) and several concerts and music festivals.
